"Surprise"
He bounced around, sapphire eyes burning brightly as the younger walked through the door, setting down a suitcase by the door, a package under the tree. They embraced tightly, watching the lights dance in each other's eyes before moving to sit around the tree. They both searched out the window for the light crystals of ice draping the world. Emerald met azure as they fell into warm comfort. The younger smiled brightly, the fire dancing behind him as the older laid his head down on his chest.
"I'm glad you mad it, Danny."
"So am I, Dazza. So am I..."
"The Best Gift"
A snow covered road, a lonely driver, a gift sent early with a shimmer of hope. A tag, a small bow as brilliant as the lights on the tree, and a ribbon as green as his eyes wrapped about a small box.
Blues shimmered as they read, "I miss you!" written in a fast hand. He unwrapped it reverently, placing the CD in his player, tears falling at the voice. "And I'm coming to see you, whether you like it or not..."
Lights, a quiet knock, a startled moment followed by a long embrace and drying tears.
"Merry Christmas, Darren."
